Gas vs. Electric: How Each One Heats

How a gas dryer heatsA gas dryer lights a burner with a hot-surface igniter, opens the gas valve through a set of coils and uses a flame sensor to confirm ignition. When the sequence fails, the drum keeps turning but the air stays cool.
What they shareBoth types use the same drum, belt, rollers, motor and blower, and both depend on a clear vent. Many no-heat calls on either type start and end with the vent.

Angi says gas dryer repairs typically run about $50 to $100 more than comparable electric dryer repairs. Source: Angi - How Much Does It Cost to Repair a Dryer?

No Heat on a Gas Dryer

Igniter, valve coils and flame sensorGas dryers light the burner with a glowing igniter, open the gas valve with a set of coils and confirm the flame with a sensor. When the igniter glows but the burner never lights, the valve coils are a frequent culprit.
Gas supply and shutoffA gas dryer needs an open shutoff valve and a sound flexible connector. Technicians check the supply before the burner assembly, and leave connector replacement or line work to whoever your state allows to do gas work.

What a Technician Checks on an Electric Dryer

Door switch and start circuitA dryer that does nothing when Start is pressed may have a failed door switch, start switch, fuse or control board. Checking power at the outlet comes first, since an electric dryer needs both legs of a 240-volt circuit to heat.
Thermal fuse and thermostatsA thermal fuse is a one-time safety device that opens when the dryer overheats. A blown fuse usually points to a blocked vent, so a good technician replaces the fuse and finds out why it blew.

Gas Safety Around the Dryer

A dryer exhaust system carries combustion gases including carbon monoxide out of the home, so HUD rates a detached, missing or blocked dryer exhaust as a life-threatening deficiency; a CO alarm in the laundry area is recommended with gas dryers.

What Willow Street Owners Should Know

Most dryer calls in Willow Street come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.

How to Choose a Dryer Technician Near Willow Street

  • What guarantee do you give on parts and labor?
  • Can you look at the washer on the same visit if it is acting up too?
  • Will you check the vent and lint path as part of the visit?

Gas & Electric Dryer Repair FAQs: Willow Street, PA

What should I do if I smell gas near my dryer?
Yes. Do not operate switches or the dryer. Leave the house and call your gas utility or 911 from outside, and only call a repair company after the utility says it is safe.
Who can work on a gas dryer?
Many appliance repair companies service gas dryers, including igniters, valve coils and burners. Work on the gas supply line itself may require a licensed gas or plumbing contractor depending on your state.
Are gas dryers more expensive to repair?
The common heat-source parts on both are modestly priced, and labor is similar. Gas dryers add ignition parts that electric models do not have. Our cost guide lists published ranges for both.
Are you affiliated with any dryer brand?
No. We are an independent directory and are not affiliated with any appliance manufacturer. Our helpline connects you with a participating independent technician. If your dryer is still under manufacturer coverage, contact the brand first.
